ABSTRAK

Penyelidikan ini dijalankan untuk menilai kesan penggunaan tiga spesies rumpai laut iaituUlva sp., Gracilaria sp. danKappaphycus sp. sebagai agen penapis semula jadi untuk menstabilkan pengkulturan rotifer dengan menggunakan petunjuk kaedah kuantitatif iaitu membandingkan nilai pertumbuhan seketika per hari rotifer Brachionus plicatilis. Kadar pertumbuhan seketika per hari rotifer dengan penggunaan Ulva sp. (p<0.01), Gracilaria sp. (p<0.05) dan Kappaphycus sp. (p<0.05) pada berat basah 7 g dalam 10 L air laut menunjukkan kesan yang ketara berbanding kawalan. Bagi kesemua rumpai laut yang diuji, keputusan menunjukkan setelah tercapainya nilai min kadar pertumbuhan seketika per hari rotifer yang tertinggi, penambahan jumlah berat penggunaan rumpai laut memberikan kesan penurunan kepada kadar pertumbuhan seketika rotifer. Keputusan menunjukkan Ulva sp. sesuai digunakan sebagai penapis biologi.

ABSTRACT

The experiment was conducted to evaluate the potential of three species of seaweed namely Ulva sp., Gracilaria sp. and Kappaphycus sp. as a biofilter in the culture of rotifer Brachionus plicatilis. Instantenous growth rate (μ) of rotifer was used as indicator for the efficiency of these seaweeds as biofilter. The result showed that the utilization of Ulva sp. (p<0.01), Gracilaria sp. (p<0.05) and Kappaphycus sp. (p<0.05), at 7 g in 10 L seawater, produced a significant effect as compared with the control. The results also showed when the highest μ values were obtained, addition of the seaweed into the culture will reduce the effectiveness of the biofilter. The results obtained in this study indicated that Ulva sp. can be used as a biofilter.
